Well the big day has finally arrived! I had our "photo op" area prepped and ready for the early morning pictures that would, obviously, ensue for such a big deal as this.
Hadley is officially 4 years, 9 months old as she is starting school. We've had our back to school outfit picked out for quite some time. She already had the dress, so we just added an applique to theme it up a bit. It is nice that Hadley gets to eat breakfast at school, therefore giving her a little extra snooze time in the mornings. At least that's one morning procedure that we don't have to make time for.
Ah, everyone has to have the quinessential backpack shot, right? Choosing the perfect backpack...now that's a new dilemma for this mama. Pottery Barn's are
adorable but so expensive. You worry that others just won't hold up or wash well, etc. I finally landed on LL Bean (reasonable and cute) and was very pleased with the product.
Hadley loves Ms. Brittney already and is so excited to be in her classroom. She found her cubby (with her horse symbol) and placed her backpack in there. Then she sat down and started coloring beside the boo hooing little girl beside her, who wasn't quite as excited about starting preschool.
We had such a smooth first morning that it helped ease my anxiety about Hadley's starting school. I dropped her off and had to refocus on teaching and loving my big kids for the day. Talk about changing hats, huh? This is a brand new season for our family, but we are over the top excited about it. Hadley really is ready to be challenged and we cannot wait to be there to help her. We love Preschool!
